AdShare + Primo Media
AdShare currently oversees one of the largest Latin multi-channel networks in the world. Now joined by Primo Media, AdShare expects to increase client revenue, viewership and subscribers while maximizing artist visibility across multiple platforms.
True Multichannel Platform
“Acquiring Primo Media solidifies AdShare’s foothold as the largest Latin multi-channel platform while adding a new dimension; including a fully staffed, experienced advertising sales team with a unique and valuable product to bring to advertisers,” says Peterson. “This acquisition further allows AdShare to continue to build a true multi-channel platform that connects with the “holy grail” of target markets; millions of Hispanic Millennials worldwide. Our sales team will connect brands with this massive audience via premium video and native advertising opportunities.”
Reaching Millions of Latin Millennials
Adds Seth Ingram, co-founder of Primo Media; “Our mission is to be top of mind when advertisers want to reach Hispanic Millennials in the US and across Latin America. Despite already enormous viewership and social followings, Latin Rhythm Music is still in its infancy, largely untapped by advertisers. We’re giving brands a rare opportunity to break new ground, connecting with Hispanic Millennials through the music they love.”
